【课文】
Postcards always spoil my holidays. Last summer, I went to Italy. I visited museums and sat in public gardens. A friendly waiter taught me a few words of Italian. Then he lent me a book. I read a few lines, but I did not understand a word. Everyday I thought about postcards. My holidays passed quickly, but I did not send cards to my friends. On the last day I made a big decision. I got up early and bought thirty-seven cards. I spent the whole day in my room, but I did not write a single card!
【讲解】
1、 a friendly waiter taught me a few words of italian.---一个好客的服务员教了我几句意大利语
friend+ly =形容词,修饰名词waiter,和很多副词拼法一样
he aways greets me in a friendly way
类似:lovely,brotherly
a few 修饰可数名词,肯定==some
the police would like to ask him a few questions
2、then he lent me a book---之前他借给我一本书
解释:lent和send,buy,give等动词一样,一个是直接宾语(指物),一个是间接宾语(指人),在这里lent 的直接宾语是book,间接宾语是me
eg:yestoday,I lent my dictionary to may
3、but i did not understand a word.....但我一个字也不懂。
not ...a 表否定,比单独的not否定要强。
i did not write a single card.
4、everyday i thought about postcards -----我每天都想着明信片的事。
what are you thinking about?
5、make a big decision
it was not easy for me to make this decision.
6、i spent the whole day in my room
spent +时间,表示花费了多长时间
we are going to spent three days in country
spend还表示“花钱”
if we spend all the money, i will be poor again
whole :整整的
the whole year 一整年
two whole weeks 整整两周
【难点】
双宾语 : 直接宾语(表示动作结果)和间接宾语(动作目标)
give sb.sth./give sth to sb
sb: 间接宾语
sth: 直接宾语
间接宾语在后面时, 其前必须加to(对……而言)或for(为……而做)
give a book to me. I buy a book for you
take flowers to my wife.
order soup for you.
可以翻译为 “给” 、 “替” 、 “为” 的, 就用for; 如果只能翻译为 “给” 的, 就用to
与for相连的 buy,order,make,find
find sth.for sb.
do sb.a favor 帮某人一个忙
Do me a favor please./Do a favor for me.帮我一个忙
